Objective

The general objective is to reduce seismic and gravity hazards in Northern Algeria though a detailed examination of the submarine geomorphology and subsurface structures. There are seisms reaching a magnitude of 7.5 and sedimentary movement phenomena which interact on this continental board on different time scales. This Franco-Algerian operation aimed to use several methods (SMF, chirp, corers, SAR, OBS, piezometers) at various resolutions of time and space to increase knowledge and understanding of these phenomena on the central and eastern part of the Algerian margin, including the Boumerdès zone where the quake of 21 May 2003 (magnitude 6.9) took place. These areas are still poorly known. The related programmes are: 'ESF-EUROCORE-EUROMARGINS WESTMED', 'ACI Risques Naturels' and 'GDR MARGES'.
